Descriptions

Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

Link to name Meta discussion
  • ### Site name
  • Webmasters
  • ### Description
  • Questions and answers about building, deploying, maintaining, operating, monetizing, and marketing websites.
  • ### Topics
  • Topics covered by this site would include:
  • - **Search engine optimization (SEO)** - How to get traffic to your website from search engines.
  • - **Domain names** - Registering, configuring, and managing names for websites including DNS settings.
  • - **HTTP, HTTPS, SSL,and TLS** - The protocols and security systems on which websites are built.
  • - **Web server configuration** - How to configure servers such as Apache and Nginx for websites.
  • - **HTML, JavaScript, and CSS** - Questions about code that powers websites.
  • - **Content management systems (CMS)** - Choosing, deploying, and managing content management systems such as WordPress or Joomla.
  • - **Hosting** - How to use web hosts and their interfaces such as cPanel. Also questions about cloud hosting for websites such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
  • - **Analytics** - How to use website analytics products such as Google Analytics.
  • - **Ad platforms** - How to show and optimize advertising on a site or buy advertising for your site.
  • ### Exclusions
  • - **Service and product recommendations** - To keep the site manageable, questions asking for recommendations would not be allowed. They tend to attract spam and require significant moderation well after they have been created.
  • - **Questions about a single website** - Questions such as requests for website reviews would not be useful to others in the future. Any question should be able to apply to many sites. Ideally, questions would use example domain names such as `example.com` or `mysite.example` rather than linking to actual websites.
  • - **Questions not about your website** - Just because something is listed in the site scope, it wouldn't be on-topic unless it is about a website that you control. For example, the following would NOT be on-topic:
  • - Hosting for non-website services such as email or games.
  • - Questions about other people's sites. Like how to search Google, or how to manage a Facebook page about something other than your website.
  • - Questions not related to your website even if the technology you are asking about is often used with websites. For example, questions about Google Analytics when it is being used with a mobile app rather than with a website. Another example might be app marketplace optimization which is similar to search engine optimization, but not related to websites.
  • ### Example questions
  • See the [webmasters tag in the incubator Q/A](https://proposals.codidact.com/categories/67/tags/7351) where there are several example questions. Please answer those questions or ask additional example questions.
  • ### Overlap
  • - HTML, CSS, and JavaScript coding would overlap with **Software Development**. There would be no bright line between when questions would be appropriate for either site. The guidance would be that if you want answers from software developers, ask on software development. If you want answers from webmasters, ask on webmasters.
  • - Server configuration might overlap somewhat with **Linux Systems** or **Power Users**.
  • ### Importing a Question Base
  • Due to the the risks associated with duplicate content, we would start this site fresh, with no questions imported from other Q/A sites. After the site is running, we could evaluate an import if we could ensure that it could be done in a way that wouldn't endanger search engine rankings or community.

  • - Site name: **Webmasters**
  • - Description: **Questions and answers about building, deploying, maintaining, operating, monetizing, and marketing websites.**
  • ### Topics
  • Topics covered by this site would include:
  • - **Search engine optimization (SEO)** - How to get traffic to your website from search engines.
  • - **Domain names** - Registering, []()configuring, and managing names for websites including DNS settings.
  • - **HTTP, HTTPS, SSL,and TLS** - The protocols and security systems on which websites are built.
  • - **Web server configuration** - How to configure servers such as Apache and Nginx for websites.
  • - **HTML, JavaScript, and CSS** - Question about code that powers websites.
  • - **Content management systems (CMS)** - Choosing, deploying, and managing content management systems such as WordPress or Joomla.
  • - **Hosting** - How to use web hosts and their interfaces such as cPanel. Also questions about cloud hosting for websites such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
  • - **Analytics** - How to use website analytics products such as Google Analytics.
  • - **Ad platforms** - How to show and optimize advertising on a site or buy advertising for your site.[]()
  • ### Exclusions
  • - **Service and product recommendations** - To keep the site manageable, questions asking for recommendations would not be allowed. They tend to attract spam and require significant moderation well after they have been created.
  • - **Questions about a single website** - Questions such as requests for website reviews would not be useful to others in the future. Any question should be able to apply to many sites. Ideally, questions would use example domain names such as `example.com` or `mysite.example` rather than linking to actual websites.
  • - **Questions not about your website** - Just because something is listed in the site scope, it wouldn't be on-topic unless it is about a website that you control. For example, the following would NOT be on-topic:
  • - Hosting for non-website services such as Email or games.
  • - Questions about other people's sites. Like how to search Google, or how to manage a Facebook page about something other than your website.
  • - Questions about mobile apps such as Google Analytics, HTML coding, or app marketplace optimization.
  • ### Example questions
  • See the [webmasters tag in the incubator Q/A](https://proposals.codidact.com/categories/67/tags/7351) where there are several example questions. Please answer those questions or ask additional example questions.
  • ### Overlap
  • - HTML, CSS, and JavaScript coding would overlap with **Software Development**. There would be no bright line between when questions would be appropriate for either site. The guidance would be that if you want answers from software developers, ask on software development. If you want answers from webmasters, ask on webmasters.
  • - Server configuration might overlap somewhat with **Linux Systems** or **Power Users**.
  • ### Importing a Question Base
  • Due to the the risks associated with duplicate-content, we would start this site fresh, with no questions imported from other Q/A sites. After the site is running, we could evaluate an import if we could ensure that it could be done in a way that wouldn't endanger search engine rankings or community.
